The ranch-style and contemporary houses in east Vancouver’s Parkside neighborhood are less than 1½ miles from the three schools its children will attend from kindergarten through the 12th grade. They're also just as close to some of the city's most popular parks, restaurants, and shopping centers.

Laid out within the past 50 years, the neighborhood’s subdivisions feature winding, suburban streets that often end in cul-de-sacs or simple dead ends. They’re lined with a mixture of ranch-style houses from the 1960s and two-story contemporary houses from the 1980s. These houses sit atop 6,000 to 10,000-square-foot lots that have enough space for a well-manicured front lawn and a backyard full of trees. Pockets of this neighborhood feature newer contemporary houses built right next to one another on smaller, 4,000-square-foot lots. Other parts of the neighborhood have some ranch-style houses that sit atop lots that stretch across ¼-acre or more. These houses range from $350,000 to $550,000, depending on their age more than anything else. Some parts of this neighborhood have sidewalks, while others do not, so your ability to get around without a car varies from one subdivision to another.

Parkside’s children will attend Burton Elementary School, which with a student-teacher ratio of 11-1 has smaller than most of Clark County and Washington State. Most of its students will move on to Cascade Middle School and Evergreen High School, both of which, like Burton Elementary, are less than 1½-miles from the neighborhood’s center. Though, a handful of students who live in the neighborhood’s eastern edge will join their neighbors from the Parkway East neighborhood at Pacific Middle School before they go to Evergreen High with the rest of their class. These four schools are managed by Evergreen Public Schools, the third-best school district in Clark County according to Niche.com.

The 5-acre Diamond Park, which has an asphalt walking path, basketball courts, and a playground with a swing set, sits at the center of this neighborhood. Two undeveloped neighborhood parks, East Image and Wyckoff, offer even more open space within a mile of its center. You’ll have to travel a little further to reach the neighborhood’s closest restaurants and grocery stores. The shopping center surrounding the Northeast 28th Street Safeway – which is home to Grady’s Public House, Kim’s Grill Teriyaki, and a Muchas Gracias Mexican Restaurant – is about two miles east of the neighborhood’s center. Head in the other direction, and you’ll find the Petra House Mediterranean restaurant, Champs Pizza, and McMenamin’s East Vancouver Pub at the 162nd Place Shopping Center.

Parkside’s ranch-style and contemporary homes are less than two miles from just about everything east Vancouver offers. Add this to the fact it’s less than three miles from Interstate 205 and eight miles from Interstate 5, and you’ve got an excellent place to call home.

GreatSchools: The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

This is a wonderful area to live. It is very convenient as you have 205 and 500 right here. It also has lovely parks and it's pleasant to walk around with your dog. Everyone is friendly and always smile or wave as you're passing on foot or in your car. I enjoy living here. The only thing I would change is maybe put speed bumps or lower the speed in 28th st.
